It is time to dive back into the twisted depths of Black Mirror. The beloved anthology series by Charlie Brooker is finally returning for a sixth season that Netflix says will be completely unpredictable. Not that any of the previous seasons lacked any shocking moments or plot twists, of course. The Black Mirror season six trailer gives us a nuanced glimpse into the action and shares the show’s release date.
